Testimonials from Trip Advisor

"Stayed at the Marriott World Center a few times over several years. Thoroughly enjoyed each visit as I've been with family, as well as solo on business travels. Family trips were great as Marriott World Center has fun amenities for the kids, with the big plus being an amazing pool and water slides. The rooms we've had were all updated, larger rooms with balcony's which is nice. The resort is very large, and often hosts big conferences, but for Orlando you should expect this. The location is great in that it's close to Disney, and all the other attractions. It's nice being super close to Disney, but not in the middle of Disney. We loved the pools, the food was good, the service was great, and the location was central to shopping and restaurants."


"Excellent hotel for business or leisure! Conference facilities are very good, and internet access was good throughout the hotel. Had a very comfortable and clean room in the south tower facing the pool, and we had a good view of the fireworks at Disney on Friday night! Staff are friendly and efficient. The pool is very spacious, and there is plenty of activities for the kids. We never had any issues with finding a comfortable place to plant ourselves. Shuttles to the airport and to Disney are easy to arrange. We would stay again in a heartbeat!"


"This hotel is huge! Great staff. Clean rooms. Amazing pool with water slides. Tons of bars and restaurants inside hotel (Japanese Steakhouse is great). Food pantry inside hotel. This place was so big I don’t think I even saw half of it on my week long stay there. Close to Disney springs and Disney. Very nice gym inside hotel as well."
